Story

In November 2016 I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. Devasting, so I thought. At that time, I didn't own a bike but by November 2018, I cycled 250 miles in India for Women V Cancer.  Without doubt, signing up to that bike challenge got me out of the hole, along with the brilliant support of the medics, family & friends.

The night before I left for India my friend Karen called to tell me her own devasting news of breast cancer. It's a prolific, nasty disease. She knew what helped get me through, so we decided we would look for another challenge, which will hopefully help her too.

The group of women I joined in India were inspirational and between us we raised close to £1m!  We want to do it again, to give back, and also to show support for our Queen of India, Jacqui, who sadly passed away not long after we returned.

I am loving the biking now, so breast cancer has introduced me to a fabulous new activity.  Who'd have thought it?!  I am funding my own costs for this challenge, so all donations will go to the three women's charities - breast, ovarian and cervical.  Any help you can give will be most welcome.  Thank you.
